Okay, so...
When it's following you it refuses - REFUSES - to fly in order to keep up.
However, if you're holding it by the drumsticks it REFUSES to land...

More Archaeopteryx Utility Tips
U can use this as an parashute
Don't put points into its movement speed if you want to glide faster. It glides as fast you run, so putting points into your movement speed will increase how fast it will glide. Hope this saves you from wasting levels like me : )
If you tame one and put it in wander near a redwood tree it will eventuly collect sap (descovered that this morning while i wanted it to wander in my small dino enclosur)
The Archaeopteryx is a tree-dwelling bird-like dinosaur. While its smaller frame make it unfit for riding, it is strong enough to carry humans, allowing them to glide across long distances. Taming an Archaeopteryx is no simple task, as it will immediately flee when approached, and once knocked out, it prefers to eat rare insect matter.~Steel Cookie 123
Amazing for riding Ptera. Right before you run out of stamina on ptera, simply jump off while holding one of these and the ptera will regain its stamina in the air. Once your pteras stamina is full you can hop back on. Never need to land in dangerous areas again.
Hit X (on Xbox controller) to stop and start glide.
Some youtubers say that they are useless. WRONG. They are better than wasting time crafting a parachute and they can attack and they are small so very hard to target. I saw one of these drill through a rex and the thing didnβt even take damage once and the rex died.
Saved my life more then once, when I have fell off my dino.
WARNING: donβt try picking it up with a flyer it will loosen the grip and glide away so just tame it right where it is
